QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Sep 6 2016, 02:26 PM) If you are referring to Zotac Mini and Palit Dual Fan version then the main difference between them is just the cooler itself, both come with similar base clock and base clock FYI.

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Sep 6 2016, 03:07 PM) If budget is tight, go for 750 EVO/UV400 and vice versa. i see. noted. thanks alot bro. you rock! .Jetstream comes with factory overclocked settings so you will gain slight performance improvements (probably around 5 FPS+/-) over the one which runs on stock speed (Mini & Dual etc). Yes, better airflow and cable management. Non modular cables are messy and a dust collector but much cheaper than fully modular  |

VGA is using old school analog signal and the signal can be affected by many external factors like cable quality. DVI and HDMI (DP also) are using digital signal naturally. HDMI is more preferred in TV industry because it supports HDCP feature. Another thing to be noted is the resolution and refresh rate support, dual link DVI supports 144Hz (1080p) while you need HDMI 1.4 for 144Hz (1080p) and so on, this isn't important for you because your monitor max refresh rate is 60Hz (but you overclock it to 7x-ish). So in conclusion, use HDMI instead of VGA port of your monitor since it doesn't come with DVI port at all.  |

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Sep 19 2016, 11:21 AM) 1. You need a cooler, every CPU needs a cooler, but not all CPU require aftermarket cooler, non-K CPU runs fine on stock cooler. 1. sorry i meant stock cooler.haha 2. If the price is too close, then Jetstream will be more worth since it comes with a better cooling solution and factory overclocked settings. 3. After sales services by ETech is ok for me, if you have issue with the item and want to send for warranty, just bring the item and receipt to the shop. If you want free pickup service, then you will have to choose Idealtech. 4. RMA largely depends on the local distributors, if they have technicians and parts available locally then pray hard that the item can be fixed in short amount of time, if not they will send back the item to the origin country to repair or exchange for a new unit, i.e. EVGA card is sent back to USA for RMA if I recall correctly.  . so i dont need that frostflow 120l. can get 240gb ssd then.2. noted.  3. noted. 4. haha "pray hard" .. epic. lets hope i dont get that problem. haha. Thanks bro.  |
